The Approach
The Approach
We created a series of recruitment films structured around real employee stories. Rather than leading with corporate prestige, we highlighted the breadth of roles available and the tangible impact employees have on both the bank's success and wider society. Warm, honest storytelling replaced the polished corporate register typically associated with finance recruitment.

The Results
The Results
Graduate applications from non-target universities increased by over 28% in the recruitment cycle following the campaign. Diversity metrics within the applicant pool showed measurable improvement across socioeconomic and educational background indicators. The films were adopted by Société Générale's recruitment team as the primary asset for careers fairs, campus events, and LinkedIn outreach resulting in significantly reducing spend on third-party recruitment advertising.
